Todd Anthony Linden (born June 30, 1980 in Edmonds, Washington) is an outfielder in Major League Baseball who has played for the San Francisco Giants since 2003. Before being drafted by the Giants he attended Central Kitsap High School in Silverdale, WA and played collegiate baseball at the University of Washington and Louisiana State University.
His first major league home run came on the 22nd of September, 2003 off Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Kazuhisa Ishii. Linden, in only his 24th major league at-bat, became just the 12th player to hit a home run ball into the second deck at Dodger Stadium, which opened in 1962.
Always a prankster, Linden is known for his hijinx that include throwing eggs and buckets of water at random people.
